Reflex




The classic mystery tale from legendary crime writer Dick Francis, in a stunning new paperback package.

Jockey Philip Nore knows all too well what it's like to fall from a horse, to feel the wrath of owners and trainers, to not always be a winner.

George Millace hated winners. As a photographer he specialized in exposing the failings of riders. Now he's dead - and no one seems very sorry.

But after Millace's home is broken into, Nore finds something unexpected. Millace had other pictures - ones people are desperate to possess.

Now Nore must discover who wants them - and fast. Because if George Millace's death was no accident then his killers are getting closer.
